A great action packed film

Rating: 7/10 (2 April 2006)

Let me start off by saying that this is a hard movie to explain. If I want to give the summary for this movie, it could possibly spoil the movie. Therefore it's better to just see the movie,not knowing what it's about. This movie stars Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johansson. This is also a bit confusing for me to explain what the movie is exactly about.Lincoln Six-Echo (McGregor) is a person living in a seemingly but weird in a contained facility in the mid-21st century. Like all the people of this carefully constructed environment, Lincoln hopes to be chosen to go to "The Island," reportedly the last uncontaminated spot on the plant, until he makes a terrible discovery that everything about his existence is a lie. He then informs Jordan Two Delta (Johansson) the truth about "The Island".
The thing that I don't really understand is why this movie bombed at the box office. It cost nearly 122 million to make and earned 25 million in the US. I don't understand why people missed out on this movie. It seemed like a big summer blockbuster and people missed out on it. To me, the cast was quite okay. The thing is, people probably didn't understand the story, and what it's exactly about.
This movie is an intense ride and a great action packed film. I enjoyed it and you won't get bored. This movie will keep you awake and on the edge of your seat. Scarlett Johansson is really hot in this movie and I'm sure in her others. I recommend that people watch this. 7.5/10
